Last week’s conversation with Reginald "Syience" Perry got a lot of love and started up many conversations. When trying to work out which theme or insight to explore in this follow-up episode, we really struggled.  We don’t use the term "self-actualized" lightly, but when it comes to Syience … So, this week’s episode we’re calling "Syience lessons".  If you haven’t heard the conversation from last week, go ahead and listen to that first. Then tune in to Drea and Tom as they talk "durable" or active stillness, creative visualization, Stoicism and dispositional optimism, working towards deeper connections with yourself and with others, and a whole bunch of other stuff we might all really benefit from practicing. And to be clear, it will take some practice.
